The Wareham Vikings will be defending their home-field for the first time this season they go up against the Cohasset Skippers at 6:00 p.m. on Friday. Both teams took a loss in their last game, so they'll have plenty of motivation to get the 'W'.
Wareham is headed into their home opener looking to turn things around after starting their season on the road. They were dealt a 39-0 defeat at the hands of Carver last Friday. While losing is never fun, the Vikings can't take it too hard given the team's big disadvantage in MaxPreps' Massachusetts football rankings (they are ranked 225th, while the Crusaders are ranked 103rd).
Meanwhile, there was early excitement for Cohasset after they claimed the first score on Friday, but it was Silver Lake Regional who ended up claiming the real prize. Cohasset fell just short of Silver Lake Regional by a score of 21-19.
Cohasset might have lost, but man, Michael Wildfire was a machine: he threw for 250 yards and three touchdowns, and also rushed for 40 yards. Another player making a difference was Gus Greene, who picked up 82 receiving yards and a touchdown.
Cohasset wouldn't let Silver Lake Regional keep a hold of the ball as they managed to force two fumbles. Cohasset can thank Ollie Henry and Nicholas Askjaer for forcing both of them.
